Hey folks-was wondering-
did BMW make 2 types of rear lights for the USA market?!

Just got to thinking that there are several states with a law allowing red 'turn signals', so did BMW cater for this???!!

I've checked out Moofles 325ix (nice car bro :cool:) and it has orange indicator lenses.

just thought if there was a red one available you could do a group buy?!

anyways, let me know what you think peeps
